    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincaré_conjecture

    Conjectures are inductive processes, but deductive logic is much more important in mathematics and philosophy.

    The process of solving mathematical problems/theorems includes analogy and categorization (i.e. shared structure), which do not try to achieve general conclusions.

    ------

    mathematics and philosophy: deductive reasoning is hard, inductive reasoning is easy

    science: inductive reasoning is hard, deductive reasoning is easy
    Finding patterns (analogy etc) is hard in both mathematics/philosophy and science.

    Deductive reasoning and inductive reasoning are (relatively) easy in both mathematics/philosophy and science.

    The patterns are fuzzy/incomplete in science so heuristic methods are needed.
